<script async="" src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script><blockquote>After the GST council meet yesterday, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had said that in large vehicles where affordability of consumers is high, the cess has been increased.
</blockquote>
"The pre-GST rate has not been restored... Even though we had a headspace of hiking cess by 10 %, it has been hiked by up to 7 %," Jaitley had said.
Cess on small petrol and diesel cars, hybrid cars and those carrying up to 13 passengers has not been hiked.
Car prices had dropped by up to Rs 3 lakh as the tax rates fixed under the Goods and Services Tax (GST), which came into effect from July 1, were lower than the combined central and state taxes in pre-GST days.
To fix this anomaly, the Council raised the cess.
<blockquote>Under the GST regime, cars attract the highest tax slab of 28 % and on top of that, a cess is levied.
</blockquote>
An ordinance was promulgated last week to hike the cess from 15 % to up to 25 %.
The Council yesterday decided on the quantum of hike in cess in various segments.
The highest pre-GST tax incidence on motor vehicles worked out to about 52-54.72 %, to which 2.5 % was added on account of central sales Tax, octroi and the like. Against this, post-GST, the total tax incidence came to 43 %.
With the revision in cess quantum, now the anomalies have been removed to a greater extent.
